Strictly limited to 6 bottles per customer Les Beaux Monts is always one of the most impressive wines from this cellar. It is a beautiful vineyard in Vosne, and the estate owns two parcels - the smaller in the cooler upper part and the larger in the lower part of this vineyard. It is intense and energetic, with elegantly constructed tannins. The ageing potential is dialled up here. It is a wine of tremendous finesse already, with hints of hoisin, morello cherry and potpourri. The tannins are aristocratic and satin-esque with a precise and sculpted finish.

The 2023 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts 1er Cru shows a little more reduction on the nose than the Aux Brûlées, though it does not disguise the concentration locked into this wine. Yet, as Mathilde Grivot said, it is a bit bashful and more difficult to taste at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins that impart a velvety texture. It has darker fruit than the Aux Brûlées, with a liberal sprinkling of cracked black pepper on the finish. This is a wine that deserves several years in a cellar. Preferably mine.
An excellent ruby purple. Apparently, this has been slow to start showing its paces but it certainly seems on form now. An excellent structure behind the red fruit which is evenly spaced across the palate. The fruit tastes as if picked at the perfect moment, with a crunch at the finish which I love, and less salinity. Perhaps the longest finish to date. Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted Nov 2024.
